Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) is an ingredient widely used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food. In supplements, it has a variety of uses, such as acting as a binder, disintegrant, or capsule coating. The safety of HPMC in supplements depends on a variety of factors, including its source, purity, dosage, and potential interactions with other ingredients.

2)The viscosity of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose is influenced by its molecular weight, with higher molecular weight leading to higher viscosity. Temperature also affects its viscosity, with viscosity decreasing as temperature rises. However, the impact of temperature on viscosity is lower compared to Methyl Cellulose. Its solution is stable when stored at room temperature.

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a key ingredient in many vitamins and dietary supplements, playing a vital role in the formulation and efficacy of these products. This compound is a derivative of cellulose, a naturally occurring polymer that makes up plant cell walls. Making HPMC by modifying cellulose requires the addition of hydroxypropyl and methyl groups, resulting in a water-soluble multifunctional substance with a wide range of applications.

4. The water-retaining property of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose depends on its addition amount and viscosity. With the same addition amount, the water-retention rate of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose Hpmc is higher than that of MC.
